The Sound of Water After I have gone to bed, The sound of water fills my head. The open window brings to me A creek engendered symphony! But more than that, a tale to tell Of where it got its start, as well. High in the hills, there is its source, Though it must start out small, of course, It gathers trickles on the way To swell it to this stream today. Creates a wetlands near to us, Where otters stare at us and fuss, Because their solitude we dare To invade, but they must share! Breaking from that tangled place, It once again begins to race. Defining banks, with deep pools where It passes by the houses there. Soon it will merge so easily With larger streams and they will be Absorbed by rivers, evermore, Committed to the western shore. While listening to this yarn it spins, My trip to dreamland then begins! Betty Lou Hebert [This message has been edited by Trillium (08-07-2006 01:34 PM).] |

Dear Verbena: It is wonderful to have that lovely water sound to listen to at night. I seldom hear it in the daytime, unless I walk down there. Too much going on I guess! Thanks. Love Betty Lou Betty Lou Hebert |
